AbstractPART 1: NON-TECHNICAL SUMMARY With support from the Solid State and Materials Chemistry Program, this NSF CAREER project explores a new way to create advanced porous materials called metal-organic frameworks (MOFs). These materials are built from metal ions and organic molecules and can store gas, clean water, capture carbon dioxide, and support chemical reactions used in energy technologies. Traditionally, MOFs are made in hot liquid solutions that require high temperatures and large amounts of
